Cobblers Cove Hotel

in the last week

A very beautiful pink-hued hotel, host to the most scrumptious food (lots of lobster), lovely people and service, long white sandy beaches and warm seas. I was particularly struck by the gorgeous smells of the garden (gardenia) and the exotic sounds of the tree frogs. A paradise!

The good: great location (can walk to Speightstown's restaurants and bars); clean rooms with good AC and showers; well maintained gardens and facilities; great variety of water sport activities (Hobie Cat sailing, etc.) The "not-so-good". We found the service adequate, at best. The staff was happy to fulfill requests (e.g. asking for iced water when getting some sun on the pool deck) but rarely (ever?) acted in a proactive manner. And some staff had a bit of attitude (perhaps if you're not identified as a returning British guest, you don't qualify for 5-star service?) Net-net, it's a lovely hotel in a good location. My recommendation (at least what we did), is to spend your days at the hotel (breakfast and sun/beach) and then head into Speightstown for happy hour, dinner, etc.). And don't be afraid to ask for what you need, as the staff will rarely approach you to check-in and ask how it's all going.

We originally planned to rent yachts for our wedding week — but choosing Cobbler’s Cove turned out to be a million times better. From the moment we arrived, it was clear this place is something special. Everything felt effortless, personal, and wildly beautiful. We had most of the hotel booked for our 60+ guests, and it genuinely felt like our own private Caribbean estate. The staff was flawless — warm, attentive, and intuitive in the way that only the best hospitality can be. Every guest (and they’re a well-traveled bunch) raved about the service and can’t wait to go back. The week was a dream from start to finish — a welcome party, beachside rehearsal dinner, and ceremony and reception that somehow each topped the last. We stayed in the suite with the private pool, which became the perfect late-night spot once the formalities were done. Every day, we took advantage of the private boats, heading out for swims, snorkeling, and rum punches at sea. It was the ideal blend of adventure and total relaxation. And the food — truly exceptional. Every meal felt like something out of a world-class restaurant: fresh, vibrant, and unmistakably Barbadian. From the beachside breakfasts to our multi-course wedding dinner, it was all beyond expectations. Cobbler’s Cove manages the impossible — it’s five-star luxury wrapped in warmth and ease. They had everything we needed for the perfect wedding week, and then somehow gave us more. We left feeling like we’d lived in a dream, and our guests are still talking about it. If you’re lucky enough to be considering Cobbler’s Cove for your wedding or even just a getaway — don’t hesitate. It’s heaven.

Very average for me! Overpriced for what you get! Rooms are big but outdated! Food is very average with not great service! Location is nice with beautiful tropical garden. Going back to Barbados, I would look for a better place to stay.

Our recent stay at Cobblers Cove was nothing short of perfection. The staff, service, food, and stunning grounds exceeded every expectation. A very special thank you to Joanna, Rin, Shoquan, and Matthew for making our visit so memorable and an extra heartfelt thank you to Gregory, who consistently went above and beyond with impeccable service and genuine care. Being in the hospitality industry myself, I know we tend to be more particular than most guests, but Cobblers Cove truly goes above and beyond even a 5 star experience. Every detail was handled with such thoughtfulness, making our stay not only enjoyable but unforgettable. Cobblers Cove sets the bar for luxury and hospitality, and we cannot wait to return.
